Isahluko 12

Wathi uSamuweli kumaSirayeli onke, Yabonani, ndiliphulaphule izwi lenu ngako konke enakuthethayo kum, ndanimisela ukumkani.
2 Kaloku nanko ukumkani ehamba phambi kwenu. Ke mna ndaluphele, ndiyingwevu; nabo oonyana bam benani. Mna ndibambe phambi kwenu kwasebuncinaneni bam unanamhla.
3 Nanku ndikho; ngqinani ngam phambi koYehova, naphambi komthanjiswa wakhe: ndathabatha nkomo kabani na? ndathabatha esile likabani na? ndacudisa bani na? ndavikiva bani na? ndathabatha esandleni sikabani na ucamagusho lokumfamekisa amehlo am? ndonibuyisela.
4 Athi, Akusicudisanga, akusivikivanga, akuthabathanga nto sandleni samntu.
5 Wathi kubo, UYehova ulingqina ngani, nomthanjiswa wakhe ulingqina namhla, ukuba anifumananga nto sandleni sam. Bathi, Ulingqina.
6 Wathi uSamuweli ebantwini, NguYehova owenza ooMoses noAron; owenyusa ooyihlo ezweni laseYiputa.
7 Kaloku ke yimani, ndimangalelane nani phambi koYehova ngayo yonke imisebenzi yobulungisa kaYehova, ayenzileyo kuni nakooyihlo.
8 Xenikweni uYakobi waya eYiputa, bakhala ooyihlo kuYehova: uYehova wathuma ooMoses noAron, babakhupha ooyihlo eYiputa, bababeka kule ndawo.
9 Bamlibala uYehova uThixo wabo; wathengisa ngabo esandleni sikaSisera, umthetheli-mkhosi waseHatsore, nasesandleni samaFilisti, nakwesokumkani wakwaMowabhi, balwa nabo.
10 Bakhala kuYehova, bathi, Sonile, ngokuba samlahlayo uYehova, sakhonza ooBhahali nooAshtaroti; kaloku ke sihlangule esandleni seentshaba zethu, sikukhonze.
11 UYehova wathuma ooYerubhahali, noBhedan, noYifeta, noSamuweli, wanihlangula esandleni seentshaba zenu ngeenxa zonke, nahlala nonwabile.
12 Kwathi nakubona uNahashe, ukumkani woonyana baka-Amon, esiza kulwa nani, nathi kum, Hayi, masilawulwe ngukumkani, uYehova uThixo wenu engukumkani wenu.
13 Nanko ke ukumkani enimnyulileyo, enimbizileyo; yabonani, uYehova unimisele ukumkani.
14 Anaba beniya kumoyika uYehova, nimkhonze, niliphulaphule ilizwi lakhe, ningawuphikisi umlomo kaYehova, nithane mbende noYehova uThixo wenu, nina nokumkani onilawulayo, ukuze kulunge.
15 Ke ukuba anithanga niliphulaphule izwi likaYehova, ukuba nithe nawuphikisa umlomo kaYehova, isandla sikaYehova sonichasa, njengokuba sachasa ooyihlo.
16 Nangoku yimani, niyibone le nto inkulu, ayenzayo uYehova phambi kwenu.
17 Akuvunwa ingqolowa yini na namhla? Ndiya kunqula uYehova ahlise iindudumo nemvula; nazi, nibone ukuba ububi benu bukhulu enibenzileyo phambi koYehova ngokubiza ukumkani.
18 USamuweli wanqula uYehova; waza uYehova wahlisa iindudumo nemvula ngaloo mini. Bonke abantu bamoyika kunene uYehova noSamuweli.
19 Bathi bonke abantu kuSamuweli, Bathandazele abakhonzi bakho kuYehova uThixo wakho, ukuze singafi; ngokuba ezonweni zethu songeze ububi bokubiza ukumkani.
20 Wathi uSamuweli ebantwini, Musani ukoyika. Nina nibenzile bonke obo bubi; noko ke musani ukutyeka ekumlandeleni uYehova; mkhonzeni uYehova ngentliziyo yenu yonke.
21 Ize ningatyeki; ngokuba ningaba nilandela izinto ezililize, ezingenakunyusa, ezingenakuhlangula, ngokuba zililize.
22 Kuba uYehova akayi kubashiya abantu bakhe, ngenxa yegama lakhe elikhulu; ngokuba kwakholeka kuYehova ukunenza abantu bakhe.
23 Kananjalo makube lee kum ukuthi ndone kuYehova ngokuyeka ukunithandazela; ndoniyalela indlela elungileyo ethe tye.
24 Kodwa moyikeni uYehova, nimkhonze ngenyaniso, ngentliziyo yenu yonke; ngokuba kuboneni okukhulu anenzele khona.
25 Ke ukuba niphikele ukwenza, nithe nenza okubi, nocinywa, nina kwanokumkani wenu.
